This March School Holidays, the well-loved lollipop brand Chupa Chups makes its sweet presence felt in a big way at Changi Airport!
The ginormous lollipop at 11.1-metres-long and 4-metres-tall display holds Singapore’s Book of Records for the largest Chupa Chups lollipop display in the city. This massive sweetie is wrapped with a 14m-by-14m Chupa Chups wrapper to achieve its final strawberry-flavoured signature look.
Changi’s Sweetest Treats kicks off from now till 3 May 2022. Besides going ga-ga over the ginormous lollipop, fans of the popular confectionery brand can pose with other colourful Chupa Chups displays across Terminal 3 (T3) and redeem limited edition Chupa Chups merchandise when they spend at Changi. Kids can go creative and develop their interests with seven unique S.M.A.R.T workshops ranging from art and craft to robotics and coding.
Phau Hui Hoon, General Manager, Changi Airport Group, Landside Concessions, said, “We are constantly exploring new and fun ideas to bring joy and delight to our shoppers and airport lovers during the school holidays. With travel recovering, we’re adding to the whole Changi experience by bringing more exciting activities to engage families and children during the school holidays and weekends. This collaboration with Chupa Chups will inject new flavour into Changi’s retail offerings and experiences for an even sweeter time together at the airport.”
